    Apple - Boot Camp

    Wowie wow wow wow wow:

    More and more people are buying and loving Macs. To make this choice simply irresistible, Apple will include technology in the next major release of Mac OS X, Leopard, that lets you install and run the Windows XP operating system on your Mac. Called Boot Camp (for now), you can download a public beta today.

    Using /usr/local

    And if you ever happen to sudo cd /usr/local/bin; rm -rf *, rebuilding everything is easy, fast, and you won’t completely ruin your computer.

    Dockless

    2446 days ago

    For the last few days I’ve had my dock hidden on the left side of the screen – and I haven’t missed it yet. The 1024×768 resolution on my powerbook is starting to get to me, and the sixty or so pixels the dock uses wastes are just too precious.

    Surprisingly, I’ve hardly even needed it. Command-Tab switches between applications just fine, and Quicksilver can do anything the dock can, only better and quicker.

    The dock is still good for forcing apps to quit, but I shouldn’t have to do that all too often.

    To Tiger or Not To Tiger

    I’ve enjoyed tiger, but haven’t scratched the surface of Spotlight or Smart folders:

    When I get a bunch of files from a client, I run a quick little Automation or Automator Action or whatever to “tag” the files. Then I set up a Smart Folder to collect all files with those tags, in addition to files containing contact names. I end up with these neat little folders that collect everything related to a project: files, versions, e-mails, vCards, and even bookmarks and typefaces. I used to spend way too much time collecting and organizing files into neat little hierarchies. Now I just dump everything into a “To Be Filed” folder that I clean out once a month. (Spotlight and Smart Folders help here, as well. It takes a few hours once a month to clean up than an hour every couple days or so.) electrospeck
